Carlie Williams
Bio
Carlie Williams is a longtime resident of Seattle and started painting in 2020 at the height of the lockdown. She had never painted or drawn until she found a free box of art materials on the sidewalk during a walk and gave it a go. She uncovered a natural ability and experienced the pure joy it brought her. She began selling her artwork right away and continues to grow her business. Carlie started with watercolor on paper and now primarily uses acrylic on canvas, alcohol ink on paper, acrylic ink, and gold leaf. The art comes from her journey through chronic pain and an ongoing deep dive into mind/body work, always seeking to understand the magic in and around us. She is often inspired by a word or phrase that keeps coming into her head and lets it lead her intuitive process. She lives with her young son and runs her own massage practice in Ballard.
